I had originally intended to start cloth diapers with the Tomato when she was born. But, the learning curve of being a new mom and adjusting to life as a stay at home mom has staved off that effort until now.

Over the years, we have given to various charities and in return those charities have sent us cards and envelopes and notepads. I […]

A few weeks back, I extolled about the wonders of baking soda when it came to cleaning our stovetop. Today, I’d like to share my favorite use of it for unclogging slow or stuck drains. I was a user of Drano and Liquid Plumber for years until we had to have the drains snaked at […]
